True dual exhaust on eco?

It's been proven that 2.5"-3" duals and 4" singles have a different effect on the torque curve.
So with these turbos being so tiny the exhaust does have an effect on these engines.

Well, with that attitude, I'm sure this post will do you no good, but I can't help myself...
Your information is not accurate when applied to turbocharged engines. You could run the turbo alone with absolutely no exhaust piping after it - all necessary turbulence is created within the exhaust manifold, pre-turbo. Sorry, them's the breaks.

Apologies - I did not intend to convey any sort of 'attitude'. Your point has merit.
I don't recall saying the engine would not run though... what's that aboot?
I'll reserve the right to maintain that a crossover does not negate the 'true-dual' portion of the definition.
BTW - I still don't see how the 1-4-2-5-3-6 firing order can be considered 'even firing' though. That is alternating banks firing. Someone wanna explain that to me?

I lost track of how many of the youtube videos I watch about exhaust on the Ecoboost. To me the best sounding ones are the Gibson, Stainless Works, Heartthrob, and Flo-Pro
